VIRGINIA Cry, M. T., April IL, 1887
| From Melrose l crossed over the noun
tain range and through valleys where ma
ture has been lavish in her supply of beau
teous adornments. l nit the Pipestone
Pass at an hour when Sol was gliding the
mountain tops with azure and ~gold-when
the frosts of morning we're disappearing
and radiancy was complete in it's full
strength OF distribution.
THE VALLEY
where the gentle Jefferson flows, where the
farm houses dot the plain, where peace
and quietness reign my ponies carried me
smoothly and quietly over the magnificent
roads. En- route l noticed the farmers
blowing ground and planting seed, prepar.
atory for early crops
My objective point was
STERLING,
and I made it in most excellent time.
Here is q belt OF mountains sillhouetted
against the southern sky in such sublime
shape it reminds one of Arcadia in all it's
loneliness.
Untold fortunes have been expended here
by capitalists and millions ave been ca
tracted from the argentiferous plenty OF
earth.
Southwest OF Red Bluff the Sterling range
takes it's points and like a flnctuating rib
bon OF many %colors, winds it's way south
ward into f~iuctuating magnolias-in imag-
nation.
The country generally is not rugged but
rich. From the old placers below the pros
pector has found his way and traced the
gold to the hill.
Amongst the mines best known and
which will eventually prove bononzas is the
IDA CLAYTON.
This property is owned by T.. W. Moves,
AL. Mowan, E. T. Ewing and - Keil.
Mr.. Noyes is a representative OF the firm
of Casey & Brophy, OF Butte The ore
taken from the shaft goes from $72 to $135
in gold, and about $13 in silver. T e last
assay shows 81, 900 in gold. The mine is
about to be leased and will soon have a
strong force of men at work.
THE BLUE BIRD,
owned by P. J. Dugan & Co., is temporarily
worked by only four men. The mine will
soon be handled by from fifteen to twenty
men.
The ore produced, according to assay,
goes from $50 to $3.50,
The vein has been traced over ] 800 feet
and all on gold ores, with silver sulphurcts,
chlorides and pyrites OF iron and lead
mixed.
THE REVENUE.
This mine is held by the owners at $780,
600. Dennis Leary and others of Butte
offered to bond the property for $l5O,OOO,
but were refused by the owners.
There is no doubt but that this rich
mineral belt will eventually produce in
abundance. CHANCE.

Books are cheap and plentiful now. We

is so bad that he cannot be reached, or
that a good book cannot make him better.

The Colonel held that a well-selected public

but a strong, vigorous one in harmony
with the grand style in which every other
